aks, also thanks for your response. You're confirming what I expected - that I should be getting much better performance. As you suggest, I'll go to direct connect (I assume you mean direct connect via ethernet, do you?) and see what that buys me first.
Yes, or at least PC wire ROUTER wire NAS, and check they negotiate at 1Gbps. If they negotiate 100Mbps, then you'll get ~10MB/s, which is what you are getting now.
Direct connect requires you to manually set the PCs IP address to 192.168.168.1 to talk direct to the NV+ v2 at \\192.168.168.168.
With a direct connection I read at the same speed on my main PC. On another wired PC I read at ~40MB/s, i.e. reading the exact same directory took <5 seconds (195/5=~39MB/s).
For me writing to the NV+ v2 peaks at about 20MB/s from both PCs wired (with antivirus disabled).
